@wissox good one
-
Crazy shot chart
-
@BeddieKU23 Have you heard any of the talk that the NBA needs to eliminate the 3 ball?
-
No I have not but with a shot chart like that, the game certainly has changed…
By the way, thx for the quick recap. I saw scores of other teams this morning but didn’t have a chance to see who was good on other teams.
-
One I missed last night was Syracuse winning by only 4 over LeMoyne which I’ve never heard of.
-
Maybe the biggest upset so far. Columbia defeats Villanova at Nova. Fan part for me is one of my old students plays a bit as a freshman for Columbia and scored 2 points! Gianni Cobb, a name to watch and if you want, he’s got All American hair. https://x.com/XposureRuns/status/1800718921567445395/photo/1
-
@wissox that hair is wild! Looks like a halo around his head. Or like hes running in front of a blond girl in every picture.
-
@approxinfinity His dad owns a barbershop and Gianni has had hair like that ever since I’ve known him. He’s very easy to keep an eye on when watching his team on TV!
-
Did anyone know SMU is in the ACC now? Dallas, Atlantic Coast, makes perfect sense. At least Stanford and Cali are on a coast.
-
@wissox i had a dream i had wild big hair and a giant beard last night. I think your post was the inception.

Ya I knew when all the expansion was going on, They bought their way into the ACC. They even gave up their share of the league Revenue sharing for like Five yrs or more just so they could b accepted. They came in the same time Stanford and Cal did
-
@approxinfinity I had a dream last night that we beat UNC 92-89. I am traveling so I haven’t seen the game yet but I’ll be anxious to watch later and see the score.
-
Really entertaining. Lots of highs, some lows, but a dub in the end

SMU is only 250 miles from a coast…
-
Wow Colorado needed OT to get past Northern Colorado
-
Maybe that’s like KU and Wichita State? The little in-state rival plays above their ceiling when it’s against the big state u school?
-
@wissox First half was brilliant, everything was going in.
2nd half was a different story, I wont blame it on refs but foul disparity is something to ponder.
Mayo is a real deal and Flory has a very high ceiling.
-
UNC guards are very good, super fast.
If their Bigs develop, they will make a lot of noise.

I felt like the first half energy was unsustainable. KU came out too hyped and UNC was a bit overwhelmed. An inferior opponent would have wilted away as KU coasted the second half. Kudos to UNC for making it a game when KU went flat.
-
So uh, no worries about Zeke Mayo’s game translating up anymore lol
-
Hunter defending the last play of the game and running to Self and an old school double five between them. Bill wanted this one. Watching the highlights for the fourth time and noticing one team played chippy and it wasn’t us. I could see the excitement from our studly bench guys and this team may have come together a bit. Spent a couple of service years in NC and very nice people especially Kinston but of the college towns the best action was acquired in Winston-Salem where lots of tobacco was grown and a uniform was an asset. Michigan State game will be it’s usual war.

None. I was one of the skeptics.
-
In other games last night #22 UCLA lost to Nevada. #24 Mississippi only beat Grambling by 2. All BIG 12 entries won their matchups with Colorado coming the closest to an upset (?) when the beat N. Colorado by 2.
-
I hoped Zeke would be a solid addition, maybe a good 6th man. I was not expecting him to come in and immediately go off for 20+ against a top 10 team with so much speed. Good stuff!
-
Anyone watching Baylor Arkansas?
-
@approxinfinity No, who won?
-
Baylor
-
Auburn Houston was a banger
-
@FarmerJayhawk Didn’t get to watch. After their turmoil it’s pretty impressive to go on the plane to Houston and put up a fight. Pun fully intended.
-
BIG 12 looking strong early. League teams only have two losses and both losses are to ranked teams. Of course Baylor got whooped, but then beat Arkansas. Got quite a few wins against ranked teams already.

B12 has a gaudy record with only the 2 losses, but only 4 teams have played a decent foe - virtually no Power 5 opponents. Basically, the B12 is 3-2 against ranked teams - wins against UNC, Arkansas and TA&M - losses to Gonzaga and Auburn…
-
Anyone see auburn flying around like airplanes after their win over Houston? Pretty sure our coach wouldn’t like it! Stupid, joke was on them.
-
Bruce Pearl is their coach. Correct.
-
@AsadZ figures, huh?
-
@AsadZ must’ve been a crazy knock down drag out
-
Anybody read the Utah AD accused the big 12 refs of cheating during their game against byu. Fined 40,000. Oh, fb.
-
Utah is a mess. BYU cheer coach was knocked out by a bottle thrown from the stands during the game. Unbelievable.
-
I didn’t watch the Utah vs BYU game but apparently they are upset that defensive holding was called extending BYUs games winning drive. While Utah scored zero points and only gained 79 yards offensively in the second half…… odd lol
-
Purdue’s 7’4" freshman center gone for the season with a broken fibia. Tough news for them and they likely will drop in the rankings. Beat Yale by 8 tonight. #2 Bama only won by 8 at home over McNeese. No major upsets today as the big boys continue to beat up the little boys.
-
I see Zuby Ejiofor, KU to St John’s a couple of years ago, still has scoring and rebounding woes. Pitino may bench the junior.
-
@Gorilla72 6.5points per game on 42% shooting, for a big that’s rough.
Udeh’s 10 points (64%) 9 rebound average is solid. Looks like he’s turning into a contributor.
I was disappointed when they left. I wonder how one or both would’ve developed at KU, but Hunt and Flory are much more talented/better.
-
@dylans Udeh I was disappointed in leaving, I think he had grown into a solid player. Flory I think has a higher ceiling than both. But with KJ and Hunt on the roster before they dipped out. They knew playing time would be pretty limited.
-
Flagg is going to be terrific but he’s had a BRUTAL last couple minutes.
-
Haha, I feel bad making fun of a freshman in college but Flagg commits two turnovers when Duke had a chance to tie or take lead in last 15 seconds.
-
@FarmerJayhawk who guards him?
-
Future opponent Oakland played Illinois toughly last night. Didn’t win, but they were no slouches.
Minnesota scores 14 first half points on their way to a loss to N. Texas.
-
Washington was losing by 11 at the half to Seattle Pacific a D3 team. Came back strong in the 2nd but goodness that’s bad.
-
Oakland did lose by a little bit in their previous game, a 44 pt loss to Boise St. I think it says more about Illinois then anything we shall see…
-
Cam Carter and LSU kind of hanging it on K/State at the half 43-31.
Actually had a chance to be up by 20 at the half but a couple of TO’S by LSU late and a three by the kitty’s now down 12-- Ya the same Cam Carter that played at K/State now at LSU

Cats STINKY
